The temperature in New York City on Sunday morning was in the low 80sF, around 28C, with humidity of around 46%. Clinton, like most official attendees at the memorial ceremonies, wore a formal suit.
A security official who did not wish to be identified told the Guardian Clinton walked from the ceremony without support, got into a vehicle and was driven away.
“She didn’t look great,” he said. “Maybe she was dehydrated, these guys work 16 hours every day.”
Clinton’s van and security detail were seen outside Chelsea Clinton’s Manhattan apartment, in the Flatiron at 26th and Madison Avenue, according to reporters who travel with her.
Those reporters noticed her departure from the memorial at about 9.36am. The campaign did not respond to their questions or those from the Guardian until 11.03am local time, an unusually long lapse from a meticulous campaign organisation.
Clinton left her daughter’s apartment at about 11.45am, smiling and waving to the scrum of cameras and posing for a picture with a young girl before stepping into a campaign vehicle.
“I’m feeling great, it’s a beautiful day in New York,” she said.
